Borderlands is an addictive mix of looter shooters and action-RPG games. To celebrate the upcoming Borderlands 4 release date, a new Humble Bundle packages eight mainline titles and spin-offs. Some games have rarely sold for less than the bundle's $16 price separately.

With the Borderlands 4 release date on September 12th, many fans are revisiting past entries in the looter shooter franchise. A new Humble Bundle deal includes all the mainline titles in the series, plus several spin-offs. The largest configuration features 8 Steam games that usually retail for $279. However, the bundle serves as a gateway to the full Borderlands experience for a minimum $16 donation.

Debuting in 2009, the original Borderlands established a successful formula for the sequels to follow. The franchise combines RPG-style skill trees and leveling with the furious action of shooter games. Players take control of Vault Hunters, who each have unique personalities and abilities. A procedure-based loot system where players earn an endless variety of weapons and gear adds to its replay value.

The second major component in the Humble Bundle is Borderlands 2. While it adds more maps, weapons, characters, and skills, many gamers believe it has the most compelling narrative. In particular, Handsome Jack is a beloved villain who rules over the planet Pandora.

Next, the 2019 Borderlands 3 refined its gameplay mechanics to become one of the better shooter games of its era. On the other hand, some supporters find the dialogue and story in the title to be second-rate.

This Humble Bundle goes beyond Borderlands 1-3

The Gear Up for Borderlands 4 Humble Bundle supplements other Steam games with additional content. Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel expands on the saga of the complex Handsome Jack. It also introduces the new challenges of a low-gravity environment.

Tiny Tina's Wonderland: Chaotic Great Edition centers around a 13-year-old character from Borderlands 2 with a talent for explosives. While it's another action-RPG looter shooter, the game takes place in a medieval setting. This version also includes DLC from the Season Pass for a fraction of its original cost.

Most Steam games in the Humble Bundle also work with Valve's handheld. Borderlands 2 VR is the obvious exception to Steam Deck compatibility. Still, the bundle might be tempting to VR fans, since severe discounts for the title are unusual.

Purchase the The Gear Up for Borderlands 4 Humble Bundle for a minimum $16 donation. Less expensive configurations are also available. The bundle expires on July 25th.
